screenshots of I ic mag post about autos and thr polyploidy work that’s done with them. The post shows that someone thought they are very work it, or they would not have been pouring so much time and resources into them. The dates says that was almost 10 years ago when the guys were working on projects such as these. Upon reading more of the post, I saw that some seeds from this work was freely offered to guy who showed interest in them.
I also saw where guys said it was a load of … “ you know”. However, none of that matters to me because there is no way trying to sort this work out, or taking any of it back.
The only thing to do to avoid it, is to look for sign of its existence in progeny. Which is hard to do because distinguishing genetics anomalies from genetics inheritance will take substantial (expensive) lab work.
Besides that, who know where to begin because of the rarity of genetics that haven’t be tampered with by efforts of man.
Here is a thought, what can a guy do in a few breedings that nature hasn’t already done in the millions of years of vegetation on this planet. Nothing.
I say that because if anything detrimental already exists in the genetics, the species would not have survived for so long. However poor breeding practices will cause poorly performing traits to reappear.
The offerings of a breeder who understand nature as a whole will be quite different than the offerings of breeder who solely concentrate on one element of nature. Jmo
Any who here is 2014 plant 3 bladed fans. Pics is just for references.
Newer 2023 3 blade offerings after a breeder had devoting some time and effort into it.
IMO, this is what plant breeding is all about, not only making a change, but also producing a plants that excels in multiple categories. Unfortunately most breeders only concentrate on a the main marketable categories. Which also shows up on their work.
Therefore, rather the offering is photo, or auto, it’s the thought behind the breedings that matters the most.
Of course there are plenty of those who pick up “Breeders lingo”, mannerisms, and techniques from the net, however it’s not very hard to see who is doing real thing, versus those who are….n’t.
Lack of progress definitely shows when a breeder doesn’t put much thought in his offering.
That same lack of progress will trickle down into the grow community. Which also shows when a grower doesn’t put much thought into his purchases.
We all know those guys what purchase(free) seed packs from someone other than the original breeder, than flood the web with post of bad genetics about the strain(offering). My thought is he got what he paid for when deciding to go with a knock off.
On ig I saw a big boys making some negative comments about another breeder. Assumingly it was about the dark plant in the above pic. Guy showed class and answered back by posting more pics of plants that were just as pretty.
What I’m getting at, that breeders big and small will knock other breeders hustle. The dude that was tripping went on to say the guys plant don’t produce what they are supposed to.
This next pic is to show the thought put into breedings.
I got ice cream in 2 seeds. And why wouldn’t i since I purchased a heavy ice cream breeding.
Even when that ice cream was crossed to a poly breeding, the offering still produced ice cream.
This guy is definitely showing that he smart breeder by offering diversity into his creation a creation that produced one of the nicest vanilla ice cream tasting smoke I have ever had. I very well knew why the other dude was tripping because his offerings, although having some nice terps, the taste was lifeless. Jmo.
Any way the free pack, the icc bx, shows just how much thought the breeder puts into his creation. I don’t have to say why because we are all breeders here.
The comments that guys make, say a lot about their experiences. Then I Look at what they are growing. And how they crossed it. I usually keep my thoughts to myself about it because what someone else is doing, don’t have anything to do with me.
This post is to show one of the reasons that I personally choose a particular breeder over another.
That’s because I prefer a breeder who is moving toward the future, instead of a breeder that is arguing about the past… making it blatantly obvious that he isn’t going anywhere. Peace brothers. Do your own thing, auto or photo.
